Chapter 40: Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Is This Yours?

Rosalie carefully observed the expression on Claudia’s face, but found that the smile on her face did

not diminish. She was neither angry nor annoyed, which left Rosalie breathless.

She thought she could provoke her with this, but Claudia didn’t care at all.

It felt like a fist hitting cotton, and I could only swallow the grievances alone.

When Rosalie thought of Claudia’s true identity, the flames of jealousy burned fiercely in her heart.

“Where did Ms. Lloyd plan to go after her divorce? Did she plan to continue working at the Lamont

Group?”

She only wanted to drive Claudia away now, far away, preferably leaving this province, leaving Adron.

Claudia raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

She is still working at the Lamont Group. Since her grandmother fell ill, she applied for the option to

work from home in order to take care of her grandmother conveniently. Because the jewelry designs

sell out quickly every time, she only needs to submit the design drafts on time every week to complete

her tasks.

But Rosalie’s words were a subtle test, both overt and covert.

Did you have the audacity to stay at the Lamont Group after getting divorced?

“Where I worked in the past seems to have nothing to do with you, right?”

“How could it be okay? Once I marry Edmond, I will be the boss of the Lamont Group. How can I let

Edmond’s ex-wife continue to work in the company?” Rosalie stared at her intently. “You wouldn’t feel

comfortable staying in the same place either.”

“I’m quite shameless.” Claudia remained unfazed, her lips curling into a beautiful smile. “The salary

offered by the Lamont Group is good. Even if you’re the boss lady, you don’t have the qualifications to

fire me if I find another job with such good benefits. Why don’t you go ask Edmond? As long as he fires

me and pays enough compensation, I can leave immediately. As for you…”

She slowly approached Rosalie and sneered, “Who do you think you are in the Lamont Group?”

Rosalie’s face turned pale.

“Even if you were the boss lady of the Lamont Group, let’s talk about it when you become the boss

lady.”

Claudia turned around leisurely.

Maybe Rosalie was going to jail before getting married.

Before leaving, she glanced at her grandmother in the ward, who was stretching her neck to look in this

direction, and lowered her gaze.

Although her mother-in-law didn’t recognize her anymore, at least she was happy.

The thought of the doctor’s diagnosis weighed heavily on my heart.

“Take good care of her,” Claudia looked at Rosalie, her face serious.

Rosalie sneered, “Of course, she was my mother-in-law, I would definitely take care of her.”

Claudia’s mouth twitched, just as she was about to speak, her phone vibrated a few times.

She opened it and saw that it was a text message from Pedro in Enigma: “I have found out about the

arrangement you made, and unexpectedly, this matter is also related to you. There is good news and

bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”

Claudia replied: “Bad news.”

Pedro: The bad news is that this was indeed not an accident. That person wanted to silence Waldron

directly because he had an important document in his car.

Claudia: What document?

Just after sending the message, a sound rang in my ears.

“Ms. Lloyd.”

Claudia looked up and saw a face with gold-rimmed glasses and a smile.

“Mr. Ervin.”

Ervin chuckled softly and said, “I wanted to talk to you about something, do you have some time?”

Claudia glanced at her phone again, Pedro hadn’t replied yet.

She helplessly put her phone into her pocket and smiled at Ervin, saying, “Okay.”

As Claudia and Ervin walked to the side, Rosalie’s heart pounded.

She involuntarily followed him up.

Seeing her approach, Ervin raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, “Ms. Clayton, is there something

wrong?”

Rosalie stood still, at a loss, clutching her nails and nervously licking her lips. “I also have something I

want to talk to you guys about.”

“Oh?” Ervin’s smile remained unchanged on his face as he gently pushed his glasses up his nose, his

eyes becoming slightly more profound. “Well then, Ms. Clayton, please wait on the side for a moment.

There are some things I would like to discuss with Ms. Lloyd first.”

Rosalie felt a slight sense of unease when she heard that he was going to talk to Claudia.

She is now very afraid of contacting Claudia and the Friedan family, especially Ervin, as the first heir of

the Friedan family. Ervin is well- informed and has a close relationship with Waldron. If Waldron has

already told Ervin something, then everything she has done would be in vain.

Rosalie was anxiously watching as Ervin deliberately avoided Claudia, feeling as restless as an ant on

a hot pan.

She took a few steps forward, hid by the wall, and listened attentively.

Ervin’s gaze hardened, both speechless and helpless.

Claudia glanced coldly at Rosalie, thinking she was cun ning before, but now she also had thick skin.

“Ms. Lloyd, did you leave anything behind after you came to my house?” Ervin got straight to the point.

Claudia was stunned, and she thought for a moment.

After returning that day, she checked the things inside and indeed found a small handkerchief missing.

However, she didn’t know if it had fallen in the Clayton’s manor or in the Friedan family.

When she hesitated, Ervin had already guessed a few points.

The handkerchief was right in his pocket, as long as he took it out, everything would become clear.

But now there was an additional person next to me.

He gave Rosalie a cold glance.

He knew that Rosalie and Claudia didn’t get along. If Claudia was really his sister, he had to keep it a

secret until Waldron woke up.

If Claudia was really Seraphina, then their years of investigation have

been misled.

There were a pair of puppeteers behind the scenes, constantly manipulating and misleading them.

Looking at his younger sister who was right in front of him, Ervin felt his eyes welling up with tears.

He walked up to the nosy Rosalie and whispered, “Ms. Clayton, as an educated person yourself, it’s

not appropriate to eavesdrop like this.”

Rosalie blinked innocently and pouted, “I was just curious, after all Claudia is also my friend…”

Friend…

Claudia almost burst out laughing.

Rosalie looked so ugly in her eagerness to eavesdrop.

“Ms. Clayton, we have always been enemies. When did I become your friend?” She crossed her arms

and smirked, her beautiful eyes scanning her up and down.

Rosalie couldn’t bear it any longer after being slapped on the face, so she turned around and left.

Claudia looked at Ervin and asked softly, “She’s gone, there’s no one else here. Just say whatever you

want.”

Ervin’s attitude today was a bit strange, especially his hands, which were constantly in his pockets, as if

he had something to hide.

Seeing Rosalie leave, Ervin clenched and then opened his hand in his pocket, taking something out in

front of Claudia’s puzzled gaze.

A piece of white cloth, yellowed with age, lay flat in his hand.

Ervin’s hands trembled slightly, his naturally smiling lips pursed tightly, and his eyes contained

suppressed excitement.

“Is this yours?”

His voice trembled with a mixture of anticipation and fear.

He held up the piece of cloth, his mind blank, his hands trembling incessantly.

Claudia raised an eyebrow.

She didn’t expect that the esteemed young master of the Friedan family would also have moments of

nervousness like this.

She glanced at the cloth in his hand, with a slight smile on her lips.

She picked up the piece of cloth and smiled brightly, “I thought this thing would be thrown away as

garbage.”

“I didn’t expect to be picked up by you.”
